Several desperate Gazans intercepted trucks delivering aid from the pier over the weekend, leading the UN to suspend the delivery operations until the logistical challenges are resolved.

The US is working with Israel and the United Nations to establish “alternative routes” for the safe delivery of the 569 tons of aid transported to Gaza since last week, Pentagon spokesperson Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said on Tuesday.

Asked whether any of the aid has been delivered to the people of Gaza, Ryder said, “As of today, I do not believe so.” He added that aid had been held in an assembly area on shore, but as of Tuesday had begun getting moved to warehouses for distribution throughout Gaza as alternative routes have been established.

Ahh yes, blame it on "warlords" and blame it on Hamas instead of acknowledging the deliberate starvation of people to result in people desperate for food. Great way to distract from the perpetrator of starvation, which is Israel who btw. could still end this famine today, by allowing in all aid and stop burning aid trucks.
